I'm 6 ft 6 195 lbs and mine broke in too fast. It was slightly uncomfortable for about a day or two then really nice for about a year and just now is too soft for me.
I blame the Brooks saddle proof stuff and living in Seattle. The second I take off my saddle cover it starts raining every time. Next saddle I won't proof at all and I will keep the serfas stretchy cover on all the time. It kind of looks like an Avocet and it only sightly less comfortable then riding bare. - Ryan On Saturday, March 24, 2012 3:07:06 PM UTC-7, Fullylugged wrote: > > Mine required 300 miles.
